Hopping Brook in Holliston - part two

Continuing from here. I went to a lower "Hopping Brook Rd 2", parked again and walked in past a sandpit to an entrance to the woods.
Again I was drawn to the left and upward (upper blue outline):
I spotted a rock pile beyond the wall:

This is called a "marker pile" site. It partakes of the ruler, grid, and calendar. The component rocks are large:
And it seemed the higher on the hill, the taller the piles. Perhaps they were to be viewed from below.
Some artistic experiments:
